From the bone-chilling temperatures in the North to the sunny states in the South, tights are a trend that continue to grow and are a must-have in any woman’s closet!

For the uncharacteristic chilly day in Miami, this Fashionista paired her slub tank, green shorts and jean jacket with some tights to add a splash of black to her outfit. And to top it all off, she toned down her look with a neutral-colored pair of brown lace-up boots and a black tote bag.

Purple, pink, lace or black, tights come in many colors, patterns and densities that can accompany any look you decide to rock for the day. Since they can be used for a plethora of outfits from dressy to casual, they will always add volume to your look. Need a few examples of how you can wear them with your personal style? Try pairing them with high-waisted shorts, a cute pleated skirt or a day dress. But don’t go overboard and let them clash with the rest of your outfit, make sure they do nothing but complement! But what if you’re a style daredevil that loves finding ways to wear clothing unconventionally or creatively? No worries at all! One of my favorite YouTubers, ItsMyRayeRaye, found another way for you to utilize your tights to the fullest, by making them into a cute top!

The accessory I used to dread wearing to church on Sunday mornings when I was growing up has been recycled into a top trend today! So whether you’re freezing in the North or staying warm in the South, tights never fail to add some spice to any outfit.
